About Nursing Home Care in West Liberty
When it comes to nursing home care in West Liberty, OH, families need to tread carefully. The standout is Green Hills Center, but it's crucial to note that it has received a Grade D rating. The overall market offers limited options, and while there are no major red flags like fines, the lack of higher-rated facilities means families may want to explore neighboring cities for better care.
Unfortunately, there are no specific facilities in West Liberty that I can recommend with confidence. If you're considering alternatives, look at facilities in nearby areas such as Bellefontaine or Urbana, where you might find better options with stronger ratings and more resources. Always visit in person to gauge the environment and staff interactions.
On the flip side, you should definitely skip Green Hills Center. Its Grade D rating raises concerns about quality of care. While it's clean and has no fines, the overall lack of positive feedback suggests families may want to avoid this facility. When visiting any nursing home, take note of the staff-to-resident ratio and observe how caregivers interact with residents—this will give you valuable insight into the care environment.

Understanding Our Trust Score System
The Trust Score is a 0-100 rating calculated from CMS's official nursing home database. The score combines five data categories:
- Health Inspection Results — Recent deficiencies, their severity, and patterns over time

Ownership: An All For-Profit Market
